Notes

Studio recording, 2002. Clean tones on Seether's 'Disclaimer' album were tracked with a Vox AC30, as confirmed by Shaun Morgan in a Guitar World interview. PRS Custom 24 was Shaun's main guitar for thick, aggressive tones, but for clean sections, the AC30 was used for its clarity and warmth. No evidence of live rig or alternate guitars for the clean section of 'Master of Disaster'.

Difficulty

The clean riff requires precise picking and dynamic control to maintain clarity and articulation, but does not involve advanced techniques or fast passages.
